A Completely New Photochromic System<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The photochromic system in ZEISS PhotoFusion X lenses is much more efficient than with previous self-tinting lenses. It includes a new generation of specially developed and patented dyes in a robust and more open carrier matrix for faster transition, allowing them to be clearer indoors, darker outdoors, and quicker to react than previous generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speed Matters<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patients frequently buy a range of prescription lenses: clear, sunglasses, and more recently, blue light protection glasses. However, having many prescription eyeglasses is pricey and can be an inconvenience to some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When people are indoors, they typically want their lenses to be clear. When stepping outdoors, their eyes perceive light and glare, and they want sunglasses that provide comfortable protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early generations of photochromic glasses were not dark enough or were too slow to clear when coming indoors. Slow fade-back speed is a visual inconvenience, as it\u2019s difficult to see indoors with dark lenses, and in social situations it can be embarrassing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
